brink dedicated server along with game

Post » Tue Apr 12, 2011 8:42 pm

I want to be able to run dedicated server and the game at same time with steam. Iv done this with crysis 2, but when I start up brink after having the server going im getting a message from steam telling me "another game is running, Use win_allowmultipleinstances to force. Anyone know how to do this?

K I figured it out, for anyone wanting to run a dedicated server and play on there own server to see how its running and it works, you need to go to your games folder in steam.

1.open up system tray in win xp/vista/win7, double left click on steam icon.
2.at top is menu, go to games, then you must navigate to tools or game list. In tools there is your brink dedicated server or in games, your brink game. You need to right click both,
3. Click on set launch options on next window
4. You must put in +set win_allowMultipleInstances 1 just like that.
5. There you go, now start both up.
